Thank you for your understand. It was very hard for me to make that decision. > If Bamboo P&T support is going to wacom-linux tested branch soon, can > I recommend not including support for the second finger since its > basically broken?

And I can remove the second finger data. But, I'd like to know what the community would like to have for Bamboo - one finger only or a buggy two fingers. TBH, I don't have a hard deadline for Bamboo. > Since relative mode devices (touchpads) can not recover as gracefully > from bad events as absolute (touchscreens), the gesture bugs will be > much more visible to Bamboo P&T users. Even if we leave the code there, we could turn gesture off by default, insetad of turn it on as it is now. Developers and testers can turn the feature on when they need it.

But Bamboo touch is not exactly the same as TPC.

I included Bamboo code without much testing from my side was to preserve contributions, like yours, from the community. It is a pain for me to see patches sumbitted without a feedback. TPC and Bamboo will share many common features when time comes. With your help, I am confident that we will be there.
